I know the height is fantastic. But, maybe it's the hour of the night that is making me yawn. It just looks so "predictable". What I mean is, this looks like another "Dubai in the sky" skyscraper. But what I cringe at, is that heliport. (Perhaps I've watched too many Irwin Allen disaster movies) but I wouldn't want to be the pilot landing a helicopter on that pad sticking out so close to the building. I smell catastrophe (Besides it takes away from the flow of the building & it looks like a hang nail.)

But overall, the atrium, the terrace planters, etc. and the façade is unique. That I like. The spires and that giant diamond at the top says something.
What it says? I'm not sure yet. Maybe symbolism? Who knows?
Gosh, I sound bitchy.
